new years the battle has raged at the mouth of the niger river pitting local militants against government forces and multinational oil companies. when i first arrived here i had just a basic understanding of the nature of the conflict. the jury is the fifth largest supplier of oil to the united states it is the eight large six border of oil on the planet but in the niger delta the region that produces hundreds of millions of dollars in oil and gas each year the average person lives on less than one dollar per day there are no there schools no good roads no good hospitals every year over three hundred oil spills contaminate the region and constant flaring of precious natural gas pollutes the ecosystem. companies and corrupt politicians reap enormous profits the inhabitants of the niger delta live in poverty. under these circumstances there was no surprise to me that a conflict that ignited in which militants. sabotaged closed haitians and kidnapped

foreign oil workers. i had to leave my guess. is. the truth is i always tend to root for the underdog and i felt an attraction to these men who were taking on the world's largest oil corporations and the corrupt government of africa's most populous nation so i took my camera to nigeria to try to meet them. ever usually go. through.

od who goes to do so i got it off why cannot you call me to let you fall stuff just. like you. yes or you want my bread out of blood yes. yes or yes but i don't and i doubt yes you city think you see only what you see don't. but.

i decided to follow the camp commander's advice traveling with some fishermen i set out to see for myself what life is like in the niger delta and hopes of understanding the conditions out of which the militancy was born. my brother such a life is sweet it's just that there is no money. to live manage a good life is not easy. but i had to keep a low profile numerous foreign journalists and documentary filmmakers had already been expelled country. government forces from the greeks and gone on a mission to combat the militants and protect the oil from illegal. but many in the

niger delta feel it is the oil companies in the federal government who are robbing the region of oil. we passed by bonnie island or multi-national oil companies like shell. and magic tap into the thirty six billion barrels of oil beneath our feet. and i find myself in a jock or a tiny fishing village that is frequently visited by the. militants from a nearby camp. i said. i think it's deserved. the government we have been i do need them not to god not to him. not to know about. and i joke.

do you think they're no longer here. i beg go out of office. the strong voice. why can't they find somewhere else to stay. far away. what are they doing. it looks like they carry some people in this big bed and they bend to. doesn't it. the guard also hold my procedure it will be bad for them if they run out of bullets what a world we live in is this an urban life or rural life. and you. are they dragging the other speedboat along so they're using their guns to signal

a child. even in the midst of a conflict so ordinary life takes its course and it's twenty three year old named mom goes into labor feel. for. them ok mama has come. i mean and that's when you're done eating please check your stomach moment. when she is slow to deliver her father feeds her roots and black pepper a traditional remedy to help speed the birth. how that is so you have to sit in that moment and you're going to want to give you this route to to. take it in sure come on. to it stand up. for you this thing is no better take it with

a pepper and chew it adil don't know what i don't like allow them to take it quickly come on. my stomach hurts if you were cheering it you would a finished it already done. all this once and then was gone then we just used all of them does not speak to you buddy did i didn't you. this is the cause is a need to wish it would and knows how to give a case i love the. old girl discussion space. it's all a neat no complications arise as mom is such a lover. no i thought i'd let it come to want to come out now god you can do it do it now do it to zeus the baby emerging then bilko cord is wrapped around his neck and he is not prince of a good son got. a lot of.

that. doesn't look like it. was never. going to go. during my time in h.r. career i've gotten a taste of the tenuous life in the creeks the vast disparity between the region's immense natural wealth and inhabitants access to basic necessities like clean drinking water or modern medical care methods aside the niger delta cause to which the militants have laid claim seem just. but i want to learn more about why some young men choose to enter the ranks of the militants and about the leaders to draw them into the struggle so i made my way to the camp of the notorious to take a tom cruise niger delta patriotic force as one of the strongest in the region. israel to a record high of one hundred thirty three dollars per barrel that might add to the image of the greater the niger delta and. the recently launched the salvage on development company monday. everyday our next thing join
